Become a Coach

Coaches play an essential role in the success of each and every program around the state. Coaches work with athletes to develop an understanding of sport knowledge and skill, proper nutrition and healthy habits, and best practices for sportsmanship. It is not necessary to have experience with a specific sport or any sport in general.

Volunteer Spotlight

Joe R. has been volunteering for Special Olympics Ohio events for over four years! He is always enthusiastic and willing to help wherever he is needed. Joe says “my favorite part of volunteering for Special Olympics is the privilege of being around the athletes. The athletes take an oath before the competition to “be brave” in their attempt, and that perfectly explains what Special Olympics is about to me. Appreciating life, being in the moment, and being brave in my attempt are just a few lessons I’ve learned from Special Olympics.” Thank you Joe!
